Daniel Lopatin's music has always bucked trends, as his prolific discography attests. Amid the noisy ‘00s DIY scene, he offered up sparkling cosmic epics like “KGB Nights” and “Physical Memory”. In remixing Nine Inch Nails, he dropped the band's trademark angst to focus on their gentle side. He even revealed a guilty pleasure for bubbly pop in side projects such as Ford & Lopatin.
